Wolverine Boots in Fashion Brands(91)

Is it important to get a waterproof boot?

Waterproof boots are designed to keep water completely away from your feet including through the stitching and laces so they are an excellent choice when you know you'll be in a very wet, muddy, or snowy environment. This can include working in forestry, agriculture, plumbing, farming, and fishing jobs. You should also consider a waterproof boot if you'll be hiking in a wet or rainy area. If your job or activity doesn't involve walking in water or a wet environment, water-resistant boots may be sufficient.

Do I need a moc toe work boot?

Moc toe work boots have a row of rugged stitching in the box toe area, which is designed to protect your toes from injury. They also give your toes more wiggle room, so they can be more comfortable when worn for long periods of time. Consider getting a moc toe work boot if you work construction, carpentry, plumbing, concrete, or any job where there is a danger of heavy objects falling on your feet. You may want steel-toed work boots, however, for the most hazardous worksites for more protection.

Is my boot size the same as my shoe size?

Your boot and shoe size are often the same, but you should try a boot on to make sure it fits properly. It should be a little roomy in the toe area so your toes can wiggle but not slide back and forth each time you take a step. When you wear work boots all day, your feet will swell, so the extra roominess will help prevent blisters and discomfort. However, your heel should not move at all. Rubbing on the back of your boot will cause blistering and make it very difficult to get through the work day.
